Mahindra TUV 300 Overview

Mahindra has added a new dual-tone colour scheme to the TUV300 to attract more customers.

The Mahindra TUV300 is offered in a total of 10 variants: 7 diesel MT (ARAI-certified mileage of 18.49kmpl) and 3 diesel AT (ARAI-certified mileage of 18.49kmpl)

The Mahindra XUV500 is priced between Rs 7.45 lakh and Rs 9.80 lakh, ex-showroom Mumbai. The main competitors include the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and the Ford EcoSport.

The Mahindra TUV300 is offered a single engine - a 1.5-litre, 3-cylinder, turbocharged diesel. This motor is available in a more powerful tune on the top-of-the-line variants. The engine is paired to either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT.

The Mahindra TUV300 is part of a unique breed of vehicles in the market, a sub 4-metre, 7-seater SUV. Unlike the hopped up hatchbacks and crossovers in the same price point, the TUV300 is built on ladder-frame chassis. The TUV300 has great road presence thanks to the tough exterior styling, has good space inside and, in typical Mahindra fashion, kitted out with features.

Editor's View of Mahindra TUV 300

Upside

Downside

Not a great highway cruiser due to 3-cylinder motor, bouncy ride and body roll, difficult to manoeuvre at low/parking speeds

Our Verdict

The Mahindra TUV300 sticks to a different formula in a segment dominated by hopped up cars - its looks are appealing and the interior is well made. It is spacious, is very value-for-money and has a decent ride and handling characteristic too.

The TUV300 is an absolute U-Turn over Mahindra’s usual over the top designs and that is a good thing. Now where some people might not agree with me, the Mahindra TUV300 is one of the better looking cars to have come out of the Mahindra stable in the last few years simply as it is not overly designed and showered with trinketry like the Scorpio or XUV are. In fact, with its squared out design, muscular haunches and pronounced wheel arches the TUV300 is just right when it comes to a car trying to flex its muscles.
